Who said “Modesty; the gentle art of enhancing your charm by pretending not to be aware of it.”?

“Modesty is not only an ornament, but also a guard to virtue.”

“Be plain in dress, and sober in your diet; In short, my dear, kiss me and be quiet.”

“I don't like to write like God. It is only because you never do it, though, that the critics think you can't do it.”

“Fidelity to conscience is inconsistent with retiring modesty. If it be so, let the modesty succumb. It can be only a false modesty which can be thus endangered.”

“Because impudence is a vice, it does not follow that modesty is a virtue; it is built upon shame, a passion in our nature, and may be either good or bad according to the actions performed from that motive.”

“Many are called but few get up.”

“A hair in the head is worth two in the brush.”

“Tact is to lie about others as you would have them lie about you.”

“Only the young die good.”

“Manuscript: something submitted in haste and returned at leisure.”

“A woman's mind is cleaner than a man s: She changes it more often.”
